RTGLA is looking for individuals and groups to help keep residents of Los Angeles warm,safe, and dry.

Join us for National Rebuilding Day on Saturday April 28th! Rebuilding Together is the nation's leading nonprofit that uses volunteers to rehabilitate homes and revitalize communities. And nationally they are connecting 250,000 volunteers to touch over 8000 homes for National Rebuilding Day. We'd like YOU to join the effort!

The day will start bright and early with an introduction to the community we will be working in and our goals for the day.

We will then separate into smaller groups and get to work! Some spaces will need more attention than others but your skills will be put to good use.

Lunch will be provided.

The "Spark of Love Toy Drive" is an amazing fundraiser that was created in 2004 by the California Community Foundation to help provide toys for the children during the holiday season. The Los Angeles City Fire Department will partner with Rebuilding Together on Saturday December 17, 2011 to host a Winter Wonderland for the Messiah Nutritional Assistance and Human Development Foundation, and the children of Peace Chapel. The festivities will begin with brunch hosted by Pastor Moore, arts and crafts, pictures with the pastors. Please dress warmly. Parent permission slips required.

RTGLA is back at it again. Our upcoming project for Make A Difference Day, October 22, 2011, will not be one to miss. We will be providing needed repairs and modifications to one homeowner in Los Angeles. Also we will be reinstating our Safe at HOME project, funded by a Lowe’s grant, to provide CO alarms, fire alarms, 9 volt batteries for existing fire alarms, grab bars, CFL bulbs, caulking, air conditioner weather stripping, water heater blankets, and sink faucet aerators free of charge to fifteen homeowners in the same neighborhood.
